SECOND EXPEDITION FAILS American Geographic Society's Party Forced to Turn Back, Although Much Better Equipped Than Expedition Led by Husk. SEWARD, Alaska. July 29. A. L. Cool and Joseph Ridley, memberj of (he Mazama expedition under the aus tuces of The Portland Oregronlan and New York Herald, which set out last April to ascend Mount McKinley and which turned back unsuccessful, ar- rlved In Seward last night. C. E. Rusk, eader of the party, and F. H. Rojec, the photographer, were delayed at Crow Creek. 80 miles from Seward, and will frrrive tomorrow. Cool and Ridley declined to (five a detailed statement concerning their ex perience on the great mountain, which has never been ascended In the Summer months. The two men insist that no party has ever reached the summit, and nay that 6000 feet of precipitous cliffs surround the top. The ascent will only be made. Cool and Ridley Bay, by a large expedition with an exten sive outfit and plenty of time. The Rusk expedition reached the summit of the mountain ascended by Ir. Cook aid Edward Barrill, and found the scaling of this peak easy enough, but it was 10 miles distant from the principal summit. Because of shortage of supplies the party was obliged to retrace its steps. The weather conditions were generally unfavorable, the air being damp and foggy most of the time. The explorers In attacking the mountain took prac tically the same route as Dr. Cook, beginning the ascent at a point a little north of east. They left Talkeetna, a trading post of the Alaska Commercial Company on the Susltna River, the last outfitting place, in the latter part of May, ascending the Chulitna River as far as possible In a small boat, then SEOlng overland on foot. They came out the. same way. The American Geographic Society's expedition, headed by Professor Her tchel Parker, of Columbia University, and Belmore Brown, of Tacoma, left Valkeetna a day later than the Rusk party and went up the Chulitna in the power boat Explorer, built expressly tor the purpose. It is credibly re-, ' ported here that this expedition also failed and turned back, and that the members will arrive here in a few days. Professor Parker gives shortage of Eupplles as the reason for abandoning is effort. PAKKER MEN WELL EQOPPED American Geographic Society's Party Started Xorth May 5. SEATTLE. July 29. The American Oeographic Society expedition to Mount McKinley, generally known as the Jlerschel Parker expedition, sailed from Seattle May 5 for Cook Inlet. It was much more expensively equipped than the Rusk expedition, but was not con sidered so strong, for most of its mem bers had done no Alaska mountain climbing. Professor Parker was in charge of the scientific part of the work and Belmore Brown, a veteran tnountalner, directed the field move ments. Professor Parker was the first scien tist to challenge Dr. Cook's claim that he had reached the North Pole, and previously had been the first to dis pute Dr. Cook's assertion that he had attained the top of Mount McKinley. Professor Parker intended to take spe cial pains on this Summer's trip to analyze Dr. Cook's story of the ascent. St Is thought the failure of the two Summer parties will lead to the or ganization of parties to make the as cent by the Fairbanks or Lloyd trail early next Spring. According to Lloyd, the ascent In March from the Fair banks side is entirely feasible. The Parker party Included besides Professor Parker and Brown. Professor J. H. Koontz. of Stevens Institute, Ho boken, N. J.; Herman L. Tucker, of Js'ewton. Mass.; Waldemar Grassi, of Columbia University, and Merle Laroy, an Alaska packer.

'"To secure a more equitable rate between Vancouver and Portland, the Portland ' Railway. Light & Power Com pany reduced the fare 5 cents on the round trip, making it 30 cents," said F. D. Hunt, traffic manager of the com pany, tonight. "The tariff schedule was made and posted according to law and no protests were filed, so it went into effect July 26." The Interstate Commerce Commission ruled in the Mount Scott ease that no Incorporated city has a right to contract to regulate the fare of transportation companies. Several years ago the Coun ty Commissioners cut the ferry rate in two. making it 5 cents for a round trip. Now the company has raised the ferry fare. It is taken from this that the County Commissioners of Clark County have no right to regulate the fare on the ferry between the Washington landing and Hayden Island. They were not notified of the recent change. "The new rate benefits 98 per cent of the people who ride between Vancouver and Portland, while it makes It slightly higher for the 2 per cent who use the ferry for crossing the river only." con tinued Mr. Hunt. "The large majority of people receive the benefit of a reduc tion of 5 cents on a.round trip. "Under the old tariff the ferry fare was 2Vs cents a trip, which was too low. The 10-cent fare between Hayden Island and the city limits was excessive. So we decided to secure a more equitable rate and made the change." RAILROAD WORK PUSHED OREGON TRUNK ENGINEER ON TOCR OF INSPECTION. Correction in Survey Made and Building: Outfits Will Be In New Territory at Once. KLAMATH FALLS, Or.. July 29. (Special.) Douglas Kyle, chief engi neer of the Oregon Trunk, has been traveling through Klamath County the past few days inspecting the proposed Hill line into Klamath Falls. Mr. Kyle was reticent, but said that the Hill road would let the contract for another large section of the line to be built this way from the north line of the Klamath Indian Reservation within 30 days. The contract has already been let for the construction of this grade from the reserve line north 40 miles and recently a grading outfit started for the scene to begin work, but was stopped and is being held at Shaniko. It is now said that this work was stopped so that a new survey for part of the route could be made. The correction is almost com pleted and it is now said that the build ing outfit will be rushed in within a few weeks. The best information to be had is that the road is to come from Crescent down through the Big Marsh country to Agency Bay, near the Klamath Indian Agency. The line is then to proceed around this bay to the mouth of Wil liamson River on the east side. From there soundings are now being made across the lake for the line to cross to the west side and strike land again about Eagle Ridge Tavern. From that place it will have a straight course down the west side to the head of Link River and down the river to the pro posed depot site on the west side of the city.

And fur ther, we most heartily indorse the pres ent Republican National and state ad ministrations. "Second We firmly believe In and ad here to the bedrock principles of the Re publican party and believe that a strict adherence to these great fundamental principles will conserve the best Inter ests of the Nation and of the American people. "ThirS We favor the building and maintaining of good roads and pledge our selves as favoring Baid appropriations from state and county funds as wil! in sure the best roads under the present system. The Republican party, ever alive to the best interests of every com munity, heartily -believes that the road question is of vital importance to the state, and favors continued and never ceasing efforts for the building and im proving of our roads and the road sys tem."

Q g BEHOVES AIL HUMORS tsi. FROM THE BLOOD The causa of all skin diseases car be traced to some humor in the blood. Healthy cuticles are only possible where the circulation is pure ; and there fore the cure of any skin trouble can only come from a thorough cleansing of this vital fluid. Salves, washes, lotions, etc., cannot cure. True, such treatment relieves some of the itching and discomfort, helps to reduce in flammation, and aids in keeping the affected parts clean, but it does not reach the blood, where the real cause is located, and at best can only be palliating and soothing. S. S. S. cures skin diseases of every character and kind, because it purines the blood. It goes into the circulation and removes the humors that are causing the trouble, builds up weak, acrid blood, and completely cures Eczema, Acne, Tetter, Salt Rheum, Poison Oak, and every other variety of skin affection. When S. S. S. has driven the humors from the blood, and purified the acid-heated circulation, every symptom passes away, the cuticle is again nourished with rich, healthful blood, and comfort is given to disease-tortured skins.

Dugan, now of Port land, according to his wife, Helen Dugan, who secured a divorce this morning, the decree being granted by Judge E. H. Sullivan. Mrs. Dugan, who says that she is a capable stenographer, recites among her husband's peculiarities: He paid little of the household ex penses, but often when he came home he would count the sticks of wood and the scuttles of coal she had burned, though she was doing her own housework while holding a position. If he did give her money to pay a bill he would ask for the change that was left, if only 5 or 10 cents. He would go alone to the theaters and take a cheap seat. If they went to the park he would ride his wheel, while she and their boy would go on the car, she paying the fare. He would take a vacation alone, going to some of the lakes, while she remained at work. They were married in Minneapolis and came to Spokane five years ago. The defendant is now in Portland.
